Oporto, Galeria Sala Maior, 2007 (Repr. colour s/p., mixed media). Presents label of the Cordeiros Gallery. Sizes: 151 x 113 cm; 172 x 120 cm (frame). Based on an image where abstraction becomes aware of the compositional space, Canogar confronts grey, red and black, three recurrent tonalities in his production, which reveal an open debate towards socio-cultural concepts. This use of flat, aesthetically opposed colours, which draw from different primary colours, responds to the desire for opposition and contradiction that prevails in many of the artist's works. In fact, Canogar states: "My work wishes to reflect, in its form of birth, in its genesis, those two elementary and primary forces that have always accompanied man: constructive and destructive forces, or construction-deconstruction. Opposing forces and the struggle of opposites, as a structural part of my work; as the reality of man who lives immersed in his own contradictions". Co-founder of the group "El Paso" in 1957, during the 1950s he developed a fully informalist work, which in the 1960s developed into an increasingly complex narrative figuration. From the 1960s onwards he achieved international recognition as a visiting professor at Milles College in California to teach the art course 1965-66, and as a guest artist at the Tamarind Lithography Workshop in Los Angeles in 1969. Between 1972 and 1974 he was also invited by the D.A.A.D. in Berlin as an artist in residence. During his mature period, from 1975 onwards, Canogar invented a new iconography, his own and personal, which he expressed through the mask, the head, the face, as a representation of man who loses his individuality and becomes a plastic sign. His work was also recognised in Spain, and during the 1980s he was a member of the Advisory Council of the General Directorate of Fine Arts of the Ministry of Culture, of the Board of Trustees of the National Museum of Contemporary Art in Madrid, and a member of the Board of Directors of the National Heritage. Throughout his career, Canogar has held countless solo and group exhibitions. Among the personal exhibitions, several have been retrospectives, including: Museo Nacional de Arte Contemporáneo and Biblioteca Nacional de Madrid, Musée d'Art Moderne de la Villa de Paris, Sonia Heine Foundation in Oslo, Konsthalle de Lund in Sweden, Paris Art Center, Bochum Art Museum in Germany, Istituto di Storia dell'Arte de Parma, Museo de Bellas Artes de Bilbao, Fundación Casa del Cordón de Burgos, Museo de Santa Cruz de Toledo, Museo Reina Sofía in Madrid, etc.

CHRISTO (Bulgaria, 1935)"Wrapped Monument Vittorio Emanuele II, 1975.Photograph mounted on cardboard. H.C. copy.Enclosed polygraph certificate.Signed and justified in the lower right corner.Measurements: 76 x 56 cm.The monument to the King of Italy Vittorio Emanuele II, in Piazza del Duomo, and the monument to Leonardo da Vinci, in Piazza della Scala, were wrapped with polypropylene fabric and red polypropylene rope, in the fall of 1970, in Milan, Italy.The fabric had been sewn in advance according to patterns that allowed for wide folds. The two wrapped monuments could be seen from the center of the Galleria, simultaneously, at each end of the large 19th century vaulted pedestrian passageway.Christo together with Jeanne-Claude a renowned artistic couple of the late 20th century, the wrapped objects of are some of the most extreme examples of modern conceptual art. Christo Valdimirov Javacheff, the primary artist and designer of the duo's projects, studied between 1952 and 1956 at the Academy of Fine Arts in Sofia, then spent a year in Prague. In 1957 Christo fled the socialist state and settled in Vienna, from where he traveled to Geneva and finally to Paris, settling in the French capital. His life in Paris was characterized by economic deprivation and social isolation, which was increased by his difficulty in learning the French language. He earned money painting portraits, which he compared to prostitution. Visiting the city's galleries and museums, he was inspired by the work of Joan Miró, Nicholas de Stael, Jackson Pollock, Jean Tinguely and mainly Jean Dubuffet. In January 1958, Christo made his first piece of "wrapped art"; he covered an empty paint jar with a canvas soaked in acrylic. He tied it up and colored it with glue, sand and automobile paint. Christo and Jeanne-Claude met in Paris in November 1958, when he was commissioned to paint a portrait of her mother. Although Jeanne-Claude married another man, she became pregnant by Christo and left her husband after their honeymoon. Despite opposition from Jeanne-Claude's family, the couple married in 1962. By 1959, Christo had changed his approach to wrapped objects. Instead of embellishing the wrapped material with glue and sand, he kept it intact. The following year, he stopped painting altogether and completed his "Inventory" series. In 1961 he tackled what would be his first project with large objects, wrapping barrels in the German port of Cologne. In 1962, as a couple, Christo and Jeanne-Claude tackled their first monumental project, "Rideau de fer" ("Steel Curtain"), as a statement against the Berlin Wall. The work consisted of blocking off Visconti Street over the river with oil barrels. Although Christo was simultaneously holding his first gallery exhibition, it was the Visconti project that made him known in Paris. In 1964 the couple settled in New York, and continued to carry out projects and exhibitions both in the United States and Europe. In 1968 they participated in Documenta 4 in Kassel, and in 1969 they undertook one of their most famous projects, that of wrapping the Little Bay waterfront in Sydney, Australia. Since then, Christo and Jeanne-Claude have undertaken numerous large-scale projects around the world, including "Running fence" and "Wrapped walk".
